Naturalne przyczyny tej zaistniałej katastrofy są mało prawdopodobne. Ostatnie badania wzmocniły podejrzenie, że w Odrze masowo rozwinęły się toksyczne glony słonawowodne.

In the Oder River, a massive algal bloom can be detected with satellite data. In close coordination with the IGB, satellite data from the European Copernicus satellite Sentinel 2 were processed.

The environmental disaster on the Oder river also leaves researchers from the IGB in a great sense of shock. They the are currently tracking down a strong toxin that can be produced by the algae species Prymnesium parvum. Even if this suspicion is confirmed, it is not a natural phenomenon, but definitely a man-made problem.

Anlässlich des Tesla-Projekts "Gigafactory Berlin-Brandenburg" veröffentlicht das IGB eine wissenschaftliche Einschätzung zur Ansiedlung von industriellen Großprojekten in wasserarmen Gebieten.

IGB scientists gave feedback on the potential revision of the EU list of pollutants affecting surface and groundwater

Acid rain seems to be a thing of the past, yet sulphate continues to rise in many inland waters worldwide. A new study provides an overview of the sources of sulphate and its effects on freshwater ecosystems. 

In March 2019, IGB researchers and technicians sampled the Spree and its tributaries. They have been doing this once a year since 2015, from the source in Upper Lusatia to the estuary into the Havel. The background is the contamination with sulphate and iron from the brown coal mining regions of Lusatia.

Peatland restoration plays an important role in protecting the climate and biodiversity. From 21 to 29 October 2018, Dubai hosted the “Conference of the Contracting Parties to the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands (COP13)”. Researchers from IGB accompany the restoration of peatlands with their expertise.
